- zoom (digital)
- Some digital cameras have a digital zoom function which is not the same as a normal zoom lens. Instead of pulling your subject closer a small patch of pixels is made larger to make detail look bigger than it really is. This means your pictures are lower in quality than if they had been taken on a conventional zoom lens.
- zoom lens
- A zoom lens gives you freedom to frame subjects near and far away without moving your own position. A zoom lens such as a 20100mm is a wide angle a standard and a telephoto lens rolled into one. A macro zoom gives you the extra option to focus on objects that are extremely close to your lens.
